Menopause Support That You Need To Know About

We’re back from a busy fortnight at This Morning Live, the Meg's Menopause Conference and the Positive Pause Feel Good Fair and we have news.

Not only did we meet a lot of lovely ladies to get feedback on the clothing (watch out for a separate blog post coming soon) but we saw and spoke to some amazing businesses and doctors who could all help you manage your menopause symptoms better.

There’s more to menopause than hot flushes, we know, so we’ve compiled a list of the people we met that could give you more help with certain issues. Here it is:

Vaginal Dryness

Are we missing anything? If there’s a specific resource that you rate that’s helped you manage your menopause symptoms, send us a message on Facebook – facebook.com/BecomeTM or Instagram @become_tm Also, get in touch if you are a business in the menopause space and we've missed you out. Can anyone help us find support groups and wellness groups operating outside of London and accessible for people in different areas of the UK? We would love to do a follow-up blog post or compile a directory full of different menopause aides to help as many people as possible.
